lurking and loving
Been lurking for about a week... I HAD to join up. I lucked out and talked my dad into giving me his old beater 1973 1/2ton long bed GMC. He was about to pull the 454 and scrap the body. I was about 1 paycheck away from buying a '69 chevelle WAGON, but I had nowhere to store it. My dad said I could have the old dump truck in the pasture if I was looking for a project. Here I am. Love the site, love the project threads. I've requested an LMC truck catalog, and looking forward to getting this truck on the road again

Re: lurking and loving

Re: lurking and loving
Welcome to the forum longbedrick.
I have to ask where you got the bumper sticker cause I need one. Seems that everyone I know thinks my truck is only good for moving stuff.

Re: lurking and loving
